Super super nice guy. Have met him twice. I was telling him how his movie, To Heal a Nation, made my father cry and that was the only time Ive seen that happen. He was genuinely touched and thanked my dad for his service. His wife did not seem to remember that role (she was with him), so he told her about the character he portrayed. Lovely man.

No matter the role, no matter the budget and no matter the script, he’s always good, he always makes an effort. Now, instead of wondering why he’s in some bad movies, I wonder why other A List actors don’t do the same.

He doesn’t get to play the roles he once did, but he appears in everything and can still make money doing what he loves… And he has classics where he played an important role… The Pope of Greenwich Village is one of the most underrated films ever (him and Mickey Rourke were amazing together), Runaway Train, Best of the Best, Star 80, so on…
